The Baddies are the meanest, nastiest ghost, witch and troll in the land. They just adore being bad, and fight over who is the worst. When a little girl moves into a nearby cottage, the Baddies can't wait to scare her out of her wits. But the little girl quickly shows them that you don't have to be big to be brave, and baddies don't always win. A brilliant paperback edition for new and old fans alike Perfect read-aloud rhyming text and stunning pictures on every page with lots of details to spot Julia and Axel are the team that have created picture book favourites such as The Gruffalo , Stick Man , Zog and The Smeds and The Smoos - all of which have been made into animated films premiering on BBC1 Christmas Day The animated film of The Scarecrows' Wedding stars voice artists including Rob Brydon (Gavin and Stacey, The Trip) voicing Reginald Rake, Jessie Buckley (Wicked Little Letters, Wild Rose) as Betty O'Barley, Domhnall Gleeson (About Time, Alice and Jack) as Harry O'Hay, all led by Sophie Okonedo (Slow Horses, Hotel Rwanda) as the Narrator. More praise for The Baddies: '[The Baddies] is every bit as charming and wonderful and funny as you'd imagine' Nihal Arthanyake, BBC Radio 5 Live 'A mean ghost, witch and troll try, yet hilariously fail, to frighten a girl in this brilliant new tale from the superstar picture book duo' The Bookseller 'Keeps little ones grinning and guffawing from the first colour-soaked page to the last hilarious line of this fresh, funny and exuberant rhyming story ... With Donaldson's heartwarming, inspirational messages about being brave and standing up to bullies, a wise and enchanting story in a rhyme perfectly created for reading aloud, and Scheffler's stunning and richly detailed illustrations providing lots to spot on every page, this is a creative partnership made in children's reading heaven!'

Great for young readers. *by on Reviewed in the United Kingdom 10 August 2026* Another great book by Julia Donaldson. Good rhythm, story line and illustrations. Good value for money, good quality pages. Bright colours and large font, encouraging young readers ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Surprisingly A Favourite *by on Reviewed in the United Kingdom 8 June 2026* Didn't expect this to be one of the better Julia Donaldson books but it's one of my daughter's favourites. Maybe because of the voices I put on when reading to her, which are easy to imagine/do with having only a handful of distinguishable characters. One of her shorter books too so if want a quicker bedtime, this is a good choice. Would recommend. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great stories *by on Reviewed in the United Kingdom 13 December 2025* As with all Julia Donaldson books a firm favorite with the grandchildren and the rhyming story is easy to read and make the story come aliveMy 3yr old grandson loves being read to and loves to follow the story in the great illustrations/pictures. 6yr old enjoys reading to younger siblings as does the 9 yr old who knows them off by heart but puts her own expression onto the story as she retells to younger kids. ## Frequently Bought Together - The Baddies: the wickedly funny picture book from the creators of Zog and Stick Man, now available in paperback! - The Ugly Five - Charlie Cook's Favourite Book --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.tn/products/511093230-the-baddies-the-wickedly-funny-picture-book-from-the-bestselling](https://www.desertcart.tn/products/511093230-the-baddies-the-wickedly-funny-picture-book-from-the-bestselling) --- *Product available on Desertcart Tunisia* *Store origin: TN* *Last updated: 2026-10-29*
